Silent, compliant, a role to play An inner voice screamed to break away A puzzle undone, a riddle untold The search for myself, a story to unfold I won't be a shattered reflection, just a distant void I'll stand like a stronghold, not a jumbled trace This lonely fortress, a sanctuary of my soul Built with shards and blood, taking its toll Doom is lurking, watching from the gate Protect my heart from the grip of chaos Scrap and clay, the bedrock of my being Amidst the wreckage, I learned how to keep breathing The world spins on an axis so frail While everything around me starts to derail I won't be a shattered reflection, just a distant void I'll stand like a stronghold, not a jumbled trace This lonely fortress, a sanctuary of my soul Built with shards and blood, taking its toll Doom is lurking, watching from the gate Protect my heart from the grip of chaos Broken mirrors, distorted views The world is sinking 'neath a veil of silver Piece by piece, nothing fits the frame Fragmented, that's the truth of the world I won't be a shattered reflection, just a distant void I'll stand like a stronghold, not a jumbled trace This lonely fortress, a sanctuary of my soul Built with shards and blood, taking its toll Doom is lurking, watching from the gate Protect my heart from the grip of chaos
